My sister-in-law and I were travelling from Maryland to Camden Maine with two dogs. We had not been to Camden before and we were totally delighted with this quaint lovely town. When we arrived to the house, the owner had left us a lovely gift bag, fresh flowers on the dining table and several suggestions on where to eat and places to visit. The home was charming, spotlessly clean and had everything we could possibly need. The kitchen was fully equipped and the many downstairs rooms were well decorated and light and breezy. There is a beautiful very large living room with plenty of seating to enjoy cards, puzzles, games, reading or just talking. The dining room is cozy and has a view of the gorgeous gardens and manicured lawns out back. Two giant weeping willows in the yard behind the house together with beautiful flower beds create such a lovely vista to enjoy with your coffee on the back deck or dining table, that it is hard to break away and start the day. The yard was totally fenced so we had no worries with the dogs - they loved it. Another great feature was a queen bedroom downstairs as well as plenty more upstairs. The bedrooms were large and comfortable,and again, spotlessly clean. The laundry room was upstairs and very convenient. The home is on a street very close to the town center and directly across from the harbor with beautiful sailboats and working lobster boats. We walked everyday to the town and to the public dock just a few yards down the street. A fun and casual restaurant is down the street as well and the views and food are great. Camden is a charming town with so much to offer and is quintessential Maine with the harbor views and beautiful open green lawns with benches overlooking the water, great shops and restaurants. We took a schooner cruise which was delightful and we ate very fresh lobster, haddock and clams almost every day! We explored the neighboring towns and the art museums and hiked a bit in the nearby park. We will definitely be returning to this home and this area - both of which are true gems in Maine!
